Commentary
The three portions of this inscription are possibly the continuation or a supplement to the inscription preceding them on the wall, that is, Tiruvavāṭutuṟai 3 (ARIE/1924-1925/B/1925/111).
The 29th year of an unmentioned king is found in the first portion. This unmentioned king might be the Rājarāja mentioned in the same first portion.
